PI and Polytec have split into
PI (Physik Instrumente) L.P. and Polytec, Inc.
Nanopositioning, Nano-Motion Control, NanoAutomation®, Piezo Technology
PI ultra-low inertia Nanopositioning solutions have helped leading companies in in semiconductor,
microscopy, telecom, photonics, data storage, machining and many other markets to achieve Nanometer Precision Faster.
PI North America: The Polytec PI Nanopositioning Group is now PI (Physik Instrumente) L.P.
NEW PI Products
PILine® M-663 micropositioning systems are the smallest piezo-motor-driven translation stages with linear encoders currently available on the market.
M-663 stages have a new, patented, ultrasonic drive developed by PI; the highly compact, integrated P-661 piezomotor drive can provide accelerations of up to 20 g and velocities of up to 500 mm/s, together with high resolution and holding force.

Products for Optical Telecommunications
PI has a range of products that are well suited to the telecommunication component manufacturing.
We have lasers, positioning components and test equipment that have been proven to improve performance and
manufacturing throughput of various optical components.
Space Technology for NanoTech: Eliminate Settling Delays
Developed for the space station, Input Shaping® technology is now available for the NanoWorld:
The exclusive Mach™ Throughput Processor™ eliminates resonant ringing in high-speed Nanopositioning
systems, allowing rapid motion without a settling phase. This technique also eliminates resonances
excited in neighboring components, outside the nanopositioning system's servo loop. The result is
significantly increased throughput.

Polytec Scanning & Single Point Vibrometers
Polytec laser vibrometers are the most advanced and widely used non-contact vibration measurement and
analysis systems in the world.
Polytec Laser Surface Velocimeter
Polytec Laser Velocimeters measure speed and length of moving surfaces accurately and without contact.
The LSV works on coils, strips, tubes, paper, foil, composite lumber, even hot steel.
